XTile and getResponseBuilder().updateComponent()
I'm trying to use XTile to implement a similar effect to what the
EventListener annotation does, but in JDK 1.4.
So, i have the XTile component all setup, i get it to call my listener
method and in the listener method i call
cycle.getResponseBuilder().updateComponent("mycomp").
Problem is, nothing happens. The component doesn't get updated.
I'm guessing more plumbing work needs to be done for this to work.
Any ideas ?

I didn't misunderstand the XTile purpose.
I was just hoping i could use it to implement the functionality i described,
bearing in mind that this is not in the scope of the XTile component.
Thanks,
Hugo

i'm pretty sure there's a general misunderstanding of what XTile's purpose
is/was.
It's simply a way to call a server-side method, something like what DWR does
(and close to what http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-979describes)
No page is rendered while processing that service...

I can see from your reply that there's no easy way of doing this :o(
I wish all of us that are stuck with JDK1.4 could have the same
functionality available as the EventListener annotation presents.
Should i create an issue for this or do you think that this will never be
implemented ?
Thanks,
Hugo

The chain of response builders all inspect the incoming http request
headers/ params to see who should handle the request type. If the
special http parameter that stands for dojo requests isn't found then
I'm guessing you're probably using the standard html response builder
which doesn't include support for xtile requests. (even if you did
somehow get the dojo response builder to handle the response you'd
still need something to handle the xml based stream that it returns )
